Song for mother/son dance

My FH can't think of anything appropriate. They get along well and he doesn't want anything overly sappy. Any suggestions??

Thanks, ladies!

I'm dancing with my dad to Josh Groban 'You Raise Me Up' but i think it can also be used for Mother /Son too.

Re: Song for mother/son dance

We chose 'Have I told you Lately that I loved you' by Rod Stewart.
The DJ was great, he only used the first verse, before it gets too much like a man singing to his wife...lol....and then he wrapped the song back to the refrain. It was really great. And cutting it off helped too...the dance wasn't too long or too short, it was perfect.
